    New from Ruger: Gunsite Scout Rifle

    Re: New from Ruger: Gunsite Scout Rifle Just scored one myself on Friday. - Trigger rocks - Accepts AICS mags - sweet!!! - New bedding system makes a lot of sense (forward action screw pulls action down AND back; achieves full contact between rear of recoil lug and stock) - laminate stock...

    RFV at Odessa, as a proposal.

    Re: RFV at Odessa, as a proposal. I hear you, Greg - as they say, "it's the Indian, not the arrow". Also, I certainly don't expect any kind of benchrest accuracy from that Savage (although it would sure be a real nice surprise...). A have a 10/22 myself (don't we all?), but I find that that...

    RFV at Odessa, as a proposal.

    Re: RFV at Odessa, as a proposal. Greg, Just so you know I often attend the F-Classes at Odessa, too (and I have a blast every time I go). I'm Dan McCoy - I'm the guy that usually travels with Kevin and Andy, although I don't shoot as good as they do. While we haven't been able to attend as...

    RFV at Odessa, as a proposal.

    Re: RFV at Odessa, as a proposal. My vote is steel, steel, steel! Paper bullseyes are OK, but they can get boring pretty fast. On the other hand, the audible "clang" that steel provides (after you've done things right, of course) never seems to loose it shine. During a recent event at Fort...

    Accuracy International Chassis System

    Re: Accuracy International Chassis System I have two M700s - a .308 LTR and a .338 MLR - and I have an AICS 2.0 for each (one OD green, one coyote brown). I love those stocks and will never part with them. Simply put, they're solid, they're trouble free, they're adjustable for shooter...

    Remington triangle barrels

    Re: Remington triangle barrels I'm don't believe a triangular barrel will shoot any worse than a round one. Tom Fargnoli (a gunsmith out of Naples, New York) has a few rimfires with trangular barrels and at least one of them holds a national title. I was in his shop recently (dropped off an...

    Gunsmithing Importance or Blueprinting

    Re: Importance or Blueprinting summitsitter, I understand your question. However, I (unfortunately) don't think that every step in an accurizing job can be analyzed as a separate process and its accuracy gains individually quantified. Fortunately, the effects of some changes are easy to...

    Interest in an XLR class at Gunsite

    Re: Interest in an XLR class at Gunsite I purchased an iTouch (cased in a protective unit from Otterbox) and threw Ballistic on it for my trip to Gunsite last year (XLR course). For their price, they offer a good value to the novice rifleman - but I think it's important to view them in the...

    Rifle Scopes Benefits of high end scopes?

    Re: Benefits of high end scopes? I own two tactical rifles. Both are Remington 700s (.308 Win and .338 Lapua), and both are equipped with S&B PMII scopes (4-16x50 and 5-25x56). Yes, the glass was pricey - but that's how I chose to spend my money (their barreled actions remain stock). The...

    700 P or 700 XCR

    Re: 700 P or 700 XCR I don't mean to hijack the thread by getting slightly off topic, but it seems like you already have some great input that's directly related to your question (I have no real input myself other than to reassure you that any Remington 700 you choose will serve you very well...
